I've run into problem though that I can't seem to find an answer to in the monit docs. First, my httpd configuration:
set httpd port 2002
allow crypt /etc/monit/htpasswd
use ssl
pemfile /etc/monit/certs/monit.pem
I can successfully use monit my web browser but when I get the following when I try to ping monit through the shell:
~# monit status
monit: cannot read status from the monit daemon
If I disable ssl everything works great from the shell, but I really need that https to protect authentication over the wire. Does monit simply not work from the shell if ssl is turned on?
Thanks!
